JET Guitars JPB-305 CRC 5-string electric bass guitar

General

The JET Guitars JPB-305 CRC is a 5-string bass guitar that extends the low notes of the familiar Precision Bass format, without losing its character! The roasted poplar body gives the instrument a slight resonance and a slightly more mature tonal character than regular poplar. The neck of Canadian roasted maple with a modern C-neck profile plays smoothly, and the rosewood fingerboard has a 12-inch fingerboard radius, which is remarkable in this price range. The whole thing is finished in a dark grey 'charcoal' finish. So with the JPB-305 CRC, you get a remarkably high-quality instrument, at a fair price!

Five strings, one focus

YHL's two custom-made split-coil pickups deliver a strong fundamental tone with tight mids. Exactly what you expect from a fine Precision. Furthermore, adjusting your sound is simple and quick with the volume and tone controls. The playing comfort of 5-string basses is always close, as you suddenly have to get rid of an extra string. But JET Guitars has ensured that the fingerboard does not feel overly large, but does offer the precision required for a five-string bass. And the vintage tuning machines are sturdy so they can tame the extra tension of a five-string setup with ease.
In short: the JET Guitars JPB-305 CRC is a 5-string bass perfect for getting used to a fifth string and expanding your playing style with some extra punch in the low end!
